Shanlee Cox
Shanlee graduated from MSU-Bozeman in 2020 with a BA in Art Education, focused in Printmaking. Afterward, she sought out residency opportunities at various arts foundations across the country, including Second State Press, the LH Project, and Hatch Show Print. In addition to the workspace and educational opportunities she received at these residencies, she also worked in the administrative side of each foundation, where she learned the resourcefulness and tenacity required to operate a professional arts facility. At the Bray, Shanlee will draw on these experiences to support fundraising initiatives and manage donations and grants as Development Coordinator.
